Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building, 90-132 Gloucester Terrace, and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
  • The extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Bayswater Conservation Area
  • Whether the development would incorporate appropriate sustainable design principles including resource and energy use
  • The effect on biodiversity
  • The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants within 90 Gloucester Terrace, with particular regard to loss of light and sense of enclosure to flats at basement and ground floor level
  • The effect on an adjacent Cherry tree
